Description

Up for sale is a brand new 1/400 Korean Air McDonnell Douglas MD-11 HL7373 (04591) by Phoenix.

Five MD-11’s have flown with Korean, this one was delivered new as a passenger aircraft in March 1992. It was converted to a freighter in March 1996. Sadly the aircraft was lost in an accident on 15 April 1999 in Shanghai just after take-off when the captain pushed the plane into a rapid un-controllable descent after believing they had passed their assigned altitude by 3000 feet. All 3 crew and 5 people on the ground killed on impact.

This model air-plane is made from die-cast metal and includes extensive detailing. It is similar in quality to Gemini Jets, Phoenix Models, NG Models and Aviation400.
